For those of you who have not seen it, President Elect Obama HAD a page on his site, www.change.gov/agenda/urbanpolcy. That page is now (as of 11/10/08) gone. However, I found a snap shot of it on Google, and had it converted to pdf format. You can view it here. This will show you just how Obama REALLY intends to treat gun owners. When you view the pdf document, scroll down to page four. That's where the "fun" begins, under "Crime and Law Enforcement."

But that's a dangerously misled assumption, said Jeffrey Montgomery. He is the executive director the Triangle Foundation, a Detroit-based civil-rights group for gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgendered issues.
"Like many minority communities who are routinely targeted and highly at risk of being victims of violence, ours would be a community I would hope that would lead the discussion and debate in favor of gun control," Montgomery said. "I firmly believe the presence of guns in confrontations does not diffuse those in any way, and does not make anyone safer."

I know, it was already planned. And then when we got there, the shooting range was packed...

It might have been a .44 magnum, not a .357. I remember it had bullets the size of my thumb.

If it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then it probably is a duck.
